His Plump Mate (by Buchanan) novel Chapter 414

Chapter 414

Isaiah POV

I wake up from a very restless sleep. I can’t believe she hung up on me and didn’t give me any answers. Only that her issues are family business. Then she said she is the fun one. Implying I’m boring. I’m fun.

Storn scoffed. ‘No, you’re not. You’re uptight. You never know when to chill and have a good time.’

I look at myself in the mirror and see my eyes changing color. Storn is at the surface. ‘Whose side are you on, anyway?’ I huffed.

‘Kaia’s. She is a fierce one. She is also not like you. She is opposite you. You need someone that can help you enjoy life. You’re too dedicated to work and I’m bored.’

‘Seriously? We stay busy, Storn. We have an important job.’

‘Yeah, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t let go and have a good time every now and then.’ He continued, ‘You never do and even though you let me out, it’s only to patrol or stretch my legs. We never do anything fun. She’s fun.’

I scowl in the mirror. Am I really that boring? I like to think I’m interesting and fun.

‘Oh, yeah? Name me one hobby you do that isn’t related to your beta position.’ Storn scoffed.

He has a point. When I was younger, I played sports and listened to music. I flirted with the girls and acted like a normal teenage kid. Once I became beta though, I stopped. I threw everything into being a beta and tried to follow Aiden’s example.

I finished showering and getting ready and made my way to the dining hall for breakfast. I see Sinclair and her eyes are tight

with worry.

“Sinclair?” I called out approaching her. “What’s wrong?”

“It’s ten in the morning and Kaia isn’t responding to my texts, and she isn’t answering my calls.” She said.

“Maybe she is still asleep?” I said, trying not to make myself worry.

Sinclair shakes her head. “No. Kaia doesn’t sleep past eight in the morning. No matter how hard she tries, her internal alarm clock always has her up at eight in the morning.”

Storn is fidgeting in my head. ‘Where is she?’

‘I don’t know, but I’m about to get on the jet and go to her. I will get the information out of Sinclair somehow.’

Suddenly, Sinclair’s phone rang. It’s Kaia.

“KAIA! Girl! What happened? It’s not like you to ignore my texts or calls. Is everything okay?” Sinclair asks trying to calm her heart rate.

Sinclair puts the phone on speaker and I hear Kaia. She sounds emotional. “Yeah, I’m fine, Sinclair. I just needed to get outside. Izo said going for a run would help me settle. She was right.”

Why does she need to settle? What happened? I’m listening intently but Sinclair takes the phone off of speaker. What they don’t know is my hearing is sharp because I’m still an alpha. But they don’t need to know that.

“Tell me what happened?” Sinclair said.

I heard Kaia’s voice crack. “More of the same, Sinclair. He insulted me and then said I was useless. After he was done spewing his venom, he said he would be here this afternoon and then said to make myself scarce,”

I feel my blood boiling. Storn is snarling in my head. Is this how her husband treats her? No wonder she wants a mate. That guy

is a total asshole. It’s better for me. She’s my mate and I intend to bring her back here and claim her. Pain in the ass or not, she’s mine. I suddenly feel very possessive and want to rip her husband to shreds.

“Kaia, I’m sorry. Don’t listen to that asshole.” Sinclair said.

Kaia sniffled, “I know not to listen to him. What bothered me the most was his tone. It was full of contempt. Like he found me disgusting. I’m not disgusting, right?”

I grabbed the phone from Sinclair. “Kaia Black, you are not disgusting. You are beautiful. I don’t know who that asshole is but say the word and I will come down there and tear him to shreds for you.”

There was a pause on the phone and for a moment I thought she hung up. But then in a quiet and almost grateful voice, I heard, ‘ Thank you, Isaiah.”

“Why don’t you come back?” I asked. “I’ll come get you myself.”

“I need to see this through. His words may have hurt, but I’m tough, Isaiah.” She said and I’ve never heard her sound so dim. It’s like her spirit is crushed and I don’t like it at all.

“Okay. You call me if you need me to come to you. I will. Understand?” I said.

“Yeah. Understood.” She said and I handed the phone back to Sinclair.

“Girlie, keep me updated. Say the word and I’m there. Okay?”

“You need to find out about the trackers. Let me know what you find out.” She said and I looked at Sinclair. My eyes are telling her I heard about the trackers. What trackers?
